Years ago (I have had HAL9000 for MANY years) before I upgraded to the latest version of HALultra I had rules that sent me e-mails to notify me of conditions. I haven't been able to get them to work and I don't know why.

I have checked, double, and triple checked the HAL settings (using google mail) and checked google mail setting.

I have checked "Do not test for network connections before downloading"
E-mail is set to pop.gmail.com (port 995/use SSL) & smtp.gmail.com (port 465/SSL)
My Account name & password are absolutely correct
I have checked "My server requires authentication" and have the setting set to "Use the same setting as my incoming mail server"

I have tried everything I can think of. . . but if I don't get an error about the encryption (when I've changed it to TSL, and other ports) I get a message in the Internet Information screen, "The connection has been dropped because of a network failure or because the peer system failed to respond. Also caus" it cuts off and I can't read the rest.

Please any ideas???
